"Winning has nothing to do with racing. Most days don't even have races anyway. Winning is about struggle and effort and optimism, and never, ever, ever giving up."
~ Amby Burfoot, The Runner's Guide to the Meaning of Life

We also had the opportunity to meet Amby Burfoot. Another inspiring and humble runner. What an honor to run with a legendary runner and Runner's World writer ...the 1968 winner of the Boston Marathon. He advised us Wisconsin women to "Enjoy the experience!" :)
